Scholarship Donation
by Pat Burns

Mount Mercy Academy has received a generous donation from The Franciscan Heritage Foundation. The group was founded in 2018 after several board members of the original Franciscan Center in South Buffalo initiated a new foundation to carry on the Franciscan tradition of generosity and benevolence.
Since that formation, The Franciscan Heritage Foundation has donated more than $ 75,000 to Catholic grammar schools and high schools across Western New York. Mount Mercy will use the money for scholarships for deserving students.
